The UNESCO World Heritage Committee, representing 185 signatories of the UNESCO Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage, took place on 2-10 July 2008 in Quebec City (Canada). The Committee session made several decisions concerning sites from the UNESCO World Heritage List located in Poland. One of the sites that the Committee has been discussing for several years is the Auschwitz-Birkenau Nazi concentration and death camp (1940-1945) and the state of its vicinity. This time was no such debate was held, but the government of the Republic of Poland was requested to provide information about the preparation and realisation of an administration plan relating to the site and its immediate surrounding. Other issues included the delineation of the boundaries of historical city centres in Warsaw and Cracow, the medieval town of Toruń, the Old Town in Zamość and the Castle of the Teutonic Order in Malbork. In the case of the Białowieska Forest the Committee obligated the Polish and Belarusian sides to organise a mission of experts for the purpose of explaining the boundaries and principles of the protection of this particular site. Information about World Heritage as well as the sessions and decisions of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee is available on: http://whc.unesco.org and the website of the National Heritage Board of Poland: http://www.kobidz.pl

Already 851 sites representing exceptional universal merits have found themselves on the UNESCO World Heritage List, created upon the basis of the 1972 UNESCO convention on the protection of the world cultural and natural heritage. The decision-making body within the convention is the Committee. The 31st session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee was held on 23 June-2 July 2007 in Christchurch (New Zealand). More than 800 representatives of 184 convention member states, state institutions and NGOs attended the meeting. The Committee decided to add to the UNESCO World Heritage List 22 new sites. It also made an unprecedented decision to strike from the list the Arabian Oryx Sanctuary in Oman, due to a reduction of the terrain and the falling number of the antelopes. The most important decision concerning world heritage sites in Poland pertained to the changed name of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. According to the proposal made by the Committee the new name is now composed of two parts, the main component being: “Auschwitz Birkenau”, followed by a description: ”German Nazi concentration and death camp (1940-1945)”. The Committee also accepted a pronouncement of the site’s significance – a document describing the site and justifying its inclusion on the List within the context of selected criteria. All the sites are obligated to prepare a pronouncement defining their exceptional and universal merits. The purpose of this duty and the explanation of the limits of the entry are to introduce order into the UNESCO World Heritage List and to draw attention to the state of the preservation of particular sites. Those activities were inaugurated within the framework of the Regular Report in 2003-2006. The 32nd session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee will take place in Quebec (Canada) on 2-10 July 2008.

From the 12th to the 14th of May, 2005, there was a conference on the subject of contemporary construction in historic urban landscapes: “World Heritage and Contemporary Architecture – Managing the Historic Urban Landscape”. During the meetings the memorandum “World Heritage and Contemporary Architecture – Managing the Historic Urban Landscape”, otherwise known as the Vienna Memorandum, was presented, which invokes the Venice Charter and other international documents which relate to the protection of historic monuments, environmental protection and lasting development. The objective of the memorandum was to summarize experiences and outline movements in conservation activities in World Heritage cities. In the discussions it was stated that a strategic approach, in creating plans for administration and local legal decisions which are supported by thorough knowledge about the place and its context, as well as consideration of contemporary mechanisms for economic and social development, will allow for the attainment of the established goals. The Vienna Memorandum will be presented to the World Heritage Committee for approval and introduction. Information about the conference, accompanied by the presentation of the text of the memorandum, can be found on the Internet at the following address: www.worldheritage2005.at

A General Assembly of the States Parties to the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage took place at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris on 23-28 October. Its participants meet every two years at a UNESCO General Assembly to make decisions concerning the dues for the World Heritage Fund and to elect new members of the World Heritage Committee. The General Assembly passed a resolution introducing changes into the Committee voting system. This year’ s election was held in accordance with the newly accepted principles. The Committee is now composed of 12 new countries: the United Arab Emirates, the Russian Federation, Switzerland, France, Cambodia, the Republic of South Africa, Thailand, Estonia, Ethiopia, Iraq, Mali and Mexico. For the duration of a mandate, which lasts for a maximum of six years, the Committee members, cooperating with advisory organisations and the World Heritage Centre, monitor the state of sites on the World Heritage List and decide about new entries. The General Assembly also discussed the future of the UNESCO World Heritage Convention in connection with its coming 40th anniversary and the challenges stemming from its global character. It is worth stressing that for the first time in the history of the Convention the debate about its future involved all the states which had signed it and which wish to have impact upon its progress.

The 33rd Session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee held on 22-30 June 2009 in Seville added 13 new entries to the World Heritage List. The main event, which dominated the session, was the deletion from the List of the Dresden Elbe valley, included in 2004 as a cultural landscape. The decision was motivated by the construction of a four-lane bridge in the very heart of the valley. At present, after this year’s session, the World Heritage List contains 890 entries.
